Roman the Gnome Hits the Road

I told you he was evolved- he left on Mailabout yesterday (he wanted to go Walkabout but his legs are a little short for the distances he had in mind)

His first stop is in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, additional stops at this point are scheduled in Maryland, Connecticut and the Carolinas. He's promised to stay in touch, but did not file a set itinerary- I have no idea how long he will stay at each stop, or how long he will be gone, or even if he will ever make it back. He's traveling light, since he has no possessions. fortunately he's a quiet house guest and rarely makes a mess. Sometimes strange things happen when he is around, for which he takes the blame or credit without comment or apology. Its a gnome thing I think...

He's actually traveling vicariously for me, its a trip I'd love to take myself. most of his stops are with internet friends of mine, people I've gotten to know over the last 3 or 4 years but never met in person. I'm looking forward to the journey, and will post updates here whenever I hear from him.

Check on Roman's progress in his Travel Journal page, the link is on the right side =>We'll post pics and comments on his trip there as they become available, and you can follow his trip on the push pin map.
